Hi

You are removing material from an article but this is being reverted because the material is reliably sourced. I suggest you engage in a discussion on the talkpage. Continually performing your action without discussion is known as edit warring, and you can be blocked for doing it. IRWolfie- (talk) 14:48, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

What material is reliably sourced? Quote the material and provide the source that includes that material.--JournalScholar (talk) 14:50, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I just checked, not a single thing you reverted could be verified by a reliable source. I suggest looking at WP:RS and WP:NOR. --JournalScholar (talk) 14:54, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Removing material without giving people a chance to improve it is disruptive. Knock it off. Press releases can be reliable sources; I don't known why you think they can't. If a group released a press release, clearly it is reliable for their own opinions. IRWolfie- (talk) 15:05, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Self-published sources CANNOT be used on Wikipedia see WP:V and WP:RS. --JournalScholar (talk) 15:07, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
CSICOP isn't self published. You will also find no wording at WP:RS or WP:V which says self published sources can not be used, read it. IRWolfie- (talk) 15:23, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
A press release is self-published. It explicitly states in WP:V that self-published sources cannot be used about third parties, they can only in certain circumstances be used about themselves.WP:SPS --JournalScholar (talk) 16:59, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
